Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endoscopic surgery is an effective technique for preserving the nipple and areola, as well as for sentinel lymph node biopsy and breast implant reconstruction. However, the technical challenges associated with endoscopic surgery have limited its widespread adoption. METHODS In the normal single-port endoscopic surgery, the ultrasonic knife was accessed through the retractor. In our modified procedure, a tiny 5 mm incision was made at the lateral margin underneath the breast, serving as the second entry port for the ultrasonic scalpel, which was referred to as the "Haigui-1 hole". Preoperative and postoperative indicators such as blood loss, operative time, and postoperative drainage volume were collected. Differences between parameters were compared using Student's t test. RESULTS Endoscopic surgery with the assistance of the "Haigui-1 hole" led to preserved breast aesthetics with minimal scarring. Moreover, "Haigui-1 hole" surgery significantly reduced the operation time, intraoperative bleeding, and postoperative drainage volume compared to normal single-port endoscopic surgery. CONCLUSION The "Haigui-1 hole" procedure, which involves the addition of a second entrance to improve the maneuverability of the ultrasonic knife, is worthy of further promotion.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The difficulty in creating and maintaining a stable workspace of the breast makes endoscopic nipple-/skin-spring mastectomy (E-N/SSM) develop slowly. This study aims to report the preliminary results of a novel endoscopic technique for N/SSM followed by dual-plane direct-to-implant (DP-DTI) breast reconstruction. METHODS A prospectively maintained database was reviewed that included patients who underwent single-axillary-incision E-N/SSM and DP-DTI breast reconstruction from September 2020 to April 2021 at a single institution by three surgeons. The data were collected prospectively and analyzed to determine the efficacy, feasibility, safety, and esthetic results of the operation, as well as quality of life (QoL). RESULTS During the study period, a total of 68 E-N/SSM and DP-DTI reconstruction procedures through a single axillary incision were performed in 63 female patients. Among all the procedures, the majority were performed for grade 1-3 ptotic breasts (n =46, 73.0%). During the median follow-up of 26.5 months, the major and minor surgical complication rates were 1.6% (1/63) and 9.5% (6/63), respectively. The cosmetic complication rate was 14.3%. One patient suffered local recurrence 4 months postoperation. The average scores in patient-reported outcomes at 2 years postoperation of satisfaction with breast (66.57), psychosocial well-being (75.93) and sexual well-being (56.29) were not significantly different compared with the baseline, except for physical well-being: chest (69.85). CONCLUSIONS The proposed procedure for E-N/SSM and DP-DTI breast reconstruction is feasible, time-saving and safe with good outcomes in terms of cosmetic results and QoL and expands the indications of DTI reconstruction to ptotic breasts, making it easier to popularize.

A novel technique of reverse-sequence endoscopic nipple-sparing mastectomy with direct-to-implant breast reconstruction: medium-term oncological safety outcomes and feasibility of 24-hour discharge for breast cancer patients. Int J Surg 2024; 110:01279778-990000000-01048. [PMID: 38348883 PMCID: PMC11020081 DOI: 10.1097/js9.0000000000001134] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/25/2023] [Accepted: 01/24/2024] [Indexed: 04/18/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the short operation time and no need for special instruments, reverse-sequence endoscopic nipple-sparing mastectomy (R-E-NSM) with direct-to-implant breast reconstruction (DIBR) has been rapidly becoming popular in the last three years. However, there has yet to be an evaluation of its oncologic safety or the feasibility of discharging patients within 24 hours. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this single-center retrospective cohort study, individuals diagnosed with stage 0-III breast cancer between May 2020 and April 2022 who underwent traditional open mastectomy or R-E-NSM with DIBR were included. Follow-up started on the date of surgery and ended in December 2023. Data, including demographics, tumor characteristics, medium-term oncological outcomes, and postoperative complications, were collected and analyzed. Propensity score matching (PSM) was performed to minimize selection bias. RESULTS This study included 1679 patients (median [IQR] age, 50 [44-57] years). Of these, 344 patients underwent R-E-NSM with DIBR (RE-R group), and 1335 patients underwent traditional open mastectomy (TOM group). The median [IQR] follow-up time was 30 [24-36] months (29 [23-33] months in the RE-R group and 30 [24-36] months in the TOM group). Regarding before or after PSM, the P value of local recurrence-free survival (LRFS, 0.910 and 0.450), regional recurrence-free survival (RRFS, 0.780 and 0.620), distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS, 0.061 and 0.130), overall survival (OS, 0.260 and 0.620), disease-free survival (DFS, 0.120 and 0.330) were not significantly different between the RE-R group and the TOM group. The 3y-LRFS and 3y-DFS rates were 99.0% and 97.1% for the RE-R group and 99.5% and 95.3% for the TOM group, respectively. The rates of any complications and major complications were not significantly different between the RE-R patients who were discharged within 24 hours and the RE-R patients who were not discharged within 24 hours (P=0.290, P=0.665, respectively) or the TOM patients who were discharged within 24 hours (P =0.133, P=0.136, respectively). CONCLUSIONS R-E-NSM with DIBR is an innovative oncologic surgical procedure that not only improves cosmetic outcomes but also ensures reliable oncologic safety and fewer complications, enabling patients to be safely discharged within 24 hours. A long-term prospective multicenter assessment will be supporting.

[PMID: 38115362 PMCID: PMC10727663 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000036173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/21/2023] Open
Abstract
RATIONALE Breast cancer represents a prevalent malignancy that primarily impacts women, with pronounced consequences on their overarching health. The major therapeutic approach, encompassing surgical procedures, can often culminate in mastectomy, potentially inciting psychological turmoil and disorders. PATIENT CONCERNS A patient was admitted to our facility on May 5, 2023, precipitated by the discovery of bilateral breast masses during a routine physical examination conducted 3 days before admission. DIAGNOSIS The breasts were symmetric, with the right nipple inverted and a palpable mass in the upper outer quadrant of the right breast, measuring approximately 5 cm × 4 cm. The mass was firm with indistinct borders, relatively regular morphology, poor mobility, and no tenderness. Outpatient color Doppler ultrasound revealed heterogeneous echogenicity in the right breast, classified as Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category 0, along with multiple ductal dilatations. The left breast exhibited a hypoechoic area (BI-RADS 3), indicative of proliferative changes. Radiographic mammography confirmed diffuse changes in the right breast (BI-RADS 0) and proliferative signs in the left breast (BI-RADS 2). Biopsy results reveal significant atypical ductal hyperplasia consistent with intermediate-grade ductal carcinoma in situ. This patient was diagnosed as ductal carcinoma in situ of the right breast (cTisN0M0 and Stage 0), accompanied by a left breast mass. INTERVENTIONS On May 15, 2023, the patient was readmitted for further surgical intervention. Following relevant auxiliary examinations, the patient underwent nipple-areola complex-sparing radical mastectomy for the right breast, sentinel lymph node biopsy in the right axillary area, prosthesis-based breast reconstruction for the right breast, and microrotatotomy of the left breast mass on the left side on May 17. OUTCOMES The patient made a successful recovery under scrupulous perioperative supervision and was discharged 7 days post-surgery. LESSONS The axillary approach for endoscopic mammary gland excision and immediate implant reconstruction permits patients to preserve the esthetics of the female form while undergoing conventional medical treatment. This methodology considerably enhances the psychophysical health of the patients, thereby marking it as an advantageous practice worthy of broad dissemination in the medical community.

Abstract
PurposeWith an increasing demand for postoperative cosmetic effects in breast diseases, the single port by trans-axillary incision and air-inflation system, which provided better space and spared the assistant the effort of retraction, is widely used in clinic surgical treatment for multiple breast diseases.MethodsAccording to inclusion and exclusion criteria, patients who underwent trans-axillary single-incision surgery at Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital between December 2020 and July 2022 were included in the study. We collected and analyzed data on age, fertility history, ultrasound grade, clinical stage, pathological results, oncological prognosis, patient-centered cosmetic outcome, etc.ResultsA total of 115 cases were included, of which 33 patients with benign disease underwent mass resection, 68 patients with malignant tumors underwent mastectomy. 10 patients had a special type of breast lesion. A mastectomy was performed in 4 patients with male mammary gland development. Of the 115 cases, the maximum mass diameter was 3.00 ± 1.644 (0.6–8.5) cm. Blood loss during surgery was 85.77 ± 50.342 (10-200) ml. The surgery took 131.84 ± 59.332 (30-280) minutes to complete. The patient spent a total of 5.05 ± 2.305 (2-18) days in the hospital. And the length of surgical incision in all patients was 3.83 ± 0.884 (3-8) cm. All patients were very satisfied with the appearance of their breasts after dressing. 94.78% of patients were satisfied with the position of the incision.ConclusionThrough this study, we believe that in benign breast diseases and malignant breast tumors, trans-axillary single port insufflation technique-assisted endoscopic surgery has oncological safety and an aesthetic effect for most people with breast diseases.

A Preliminary Experience of Endoscopic Total Mastectomy With Immediate Free Abdominal-Based Perforator Flap Reconstruction Using Minimal Incisions, and Literature Review. J Breast Cancer 2023; 26:152-167. [PMID: 37051645 PMCID: PMC10139846 DOI: 10.4048/jbc.2023.26.e10] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2022] [Revised: 12/09/2022] [Accepted: 02/14/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Endoscopic total mastectomy (ETM) is predominantly performed with reconstruction using prostheses, lipofilling, omental flaps, latissimus dorsi flaps, or a combination of these techniques. Common approaches include minimal incisions, e.g., periareolar, inframammary, axillary, or mid-axillary line, which limit the technical ability to perform autologous flap insets and microvascular anastomoses, as such the ETM with free abdominal-based perforator flap reconstruction has not been robustly explored. METHODS We studied female patients with breast cancer who underwent ETM and abdominal-based flap reconstruction. Clinical-radiological-pathological characteristics, surgery, complications, recurrence rates, and aesthetic outcomes were reviewed. RESULTS Twelve patients underwent ETM with abdominal-based flap reconstruction. The mean age was 53.4 years (range 36-65). Of the patients, 33.3% were surgically treated for stage I, 58.4% for stage II, and 8.3% for stage III cancer. Mean tumor size was 35.4 mm (range 1-67). Mean specimen weight was 458.75 g (range 242-800). Of the patients, 92.3% successfully received endoscopic nipple-sparing mastectomy and 7.7% underwent intraoperative conversion to skin-sparing mastectomy after carcinoma was reported on frozen section of the nipple base. Mean operative time for ETM was 139 minutes (92-198), and the average ischemic time was 37.3 minutes (range 22-50). Fifty percent of patients underwent deep inferior epigastric perforator, 33.4% underwent MS-2 transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM), 8.3% underwent MS-1 TRAM, and 8.3% underwent pedicled TRAM flap reconstruction. No cases required re-exploration, no flap failure occurred, margins were clear, and no skin or nipple-areolar complex ischemia/necrosis developed. In the aesthetic outcome evaluation, 16.7% were excellent, 75% good, 8.3% fair, and none were unsatisfactory. No recurrences were observed. CONCLUSION ETM through a minimal-access inferior mammary or mid-axillary line approach, followed by immediate pedicled TRAM or free abdominal-based perforator flap reconstruction, can be a safe means of achieving an "aesthetically scarless" mastectomy and reconstruction through minimal incisions.

Abstract
Background In recently years, breast endoscopic reconstruction surgery is becoming increasingly popular. And we have explored a series of endoscopic breast reconstruction procedures and applied it to our day surgery under the epidemic control of the novel coronavirus. Methods The present study was a retrospective analysis. Patients who underwent unilateral breast endoscopic reconstruction surgery in the West China Hospital from April 2017 to February 2021 were included in the study. Patients were divided into the following three groups: ward exploration period (WEP), ward maturation period (WMP), and day surgery period (DSP), respectively. We compared the results of postoperative complications, hospitalization costs, operation time, and BREAST-Q (a patient-reported outcome instrument measuring health-related quality-of-life and patient satisfaction in breast surgery) scale scores among the three groups of patients. Results A total of 66 patients were included (WEP n=30, WMP n=14, DSP n=22). Four people refused to complete the BREAST-Q scale, and five patients missed complication record sheets. Patients in the DSP and WMP groups had slightly higher postoperative satisfaction with their breasts than WEP, but there was no statistically significant difference (3 months postoperatively: WEP vs. WMP =0.515, WEP vs. DSP =0.418, WMP vs. DSP =0.982). On the postoperative BREAST-Q scale scores of psychosocial, sexual life and chest well-being, patients with DSP scored slightly higher than those with WEP versus WMP, but there was no statistically significant difference. The incidence of postoperative complications was generally higher in the WEP group than in the WMP and DSP groups, but there was no statistically significant incidence of either major or minor complications (P=1.000). With the use of prostheses and mesh, patients in the DSP group had lower hospitalization costs than other two groups. In terms of operative time, patients in the WMP and DSP groups had shorter operative times compared with the WEP group, and the results were statistically significant (WEP vs. WMP =0.000, WEP vs. DSP =0.000, WMP vs. DSP =0.243). Conclusions We believe that performing our newly developed endoscopic breast reconstructive surgery at a day surgery center is safe and reliable.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Sentinel node biopsy (SNB) is the standard of care in women with breast cancer (BC) and clinically non suspicious axillary lymph nodes (LNs), due to its high negative predictive value (NPV) in the assessment of nodal status. SNB has significantly reduced complications related to the axillary lymph node dissection, such as lymphedema and upper limb dysfunction. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION The gold standard technique for SNB is the blue dye (BD) and technetium labelled nanocolloid (Tc-99m) double technique. However, nuclear medicine is not available in all Institutions and several new tracers and devices have been proposed, such as indocyanine green (ICG) and superparamagnetic iron oxides (SPIO). All these techniques show an accuracy and detection rate not inferior to that of the standard technique, with different specific pros and cons. The choice of how to perform a SNB primarily depends on the surgeon's confidence with the procedure, the availability of nuclear medicine and the economic resources of the Institutions. In this setting, new tracers, hybrid tracers and imaging techniques are being evaluated in order to improve the detection rate of sentinel lymph nodes (SNs) and minimize the number of unnecessary axillary surgeries through an accurate preoperative assessment of nodal status and to guide new minimally invasive diagnostic procedures of SNs. In particular, the contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is an active field of research but cannot be recommended for clinical use at this time. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS The ICG fluorescence technique was superior in terms of DR, as well as having the lowest FNR. The DR descending order was SPIO, Tc, dual modality (Tc/BD), CEUS and BD. CONCLUSIONS This paper is a narrative review of the most common SNB techniques in BC with a focus on recent innovations.

Front Oncol 2021; 10:594388. [PMID: 33489893 PMCID: PMC7819886 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2020.594388] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2020] [Accepted: 11/19/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose This study is to directly compare surgical outcomes between conventional nipple-sparing mastectomy (CNSM) and robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy (RNSM). Materials and Method For this case–control study, 369 cases of 333 patients who underwent CNSM or RNSM with immediate reconstruction between November 2016 and January 2019 at Severance Hospital in Seoul, Republic of Korea were reviewed. Patients with stage IV breast cancer (n = 1), receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy (n = 43), or subjected to previous operations (n = 14) or radiotherapy on the breasts were excluded. The main outcomes were comparing rates of post-operative complications, of high-grade post-operative complications as defined by the Clavien-Dindo classification, and nipple necrosis between the CNSM and the RNSM groups. Results A total of 311 cases, including 270 CNSMs and 41 RNSMs, were analyzed. The rates of post-operative nipple necrosis (p = 0.026, 2.4 vs. 15.2%) and of high-grade post-operative complications (p = 0.031, 34.8 vs. 17.1%) in the RNSM group were significantly lower than those in the CNSM group. Conclusion RNSM was associated with lower rates of high-grade post-operative complications and nipple necrosis than CNSM for patients with small breast volumes and less ptotic breasts.
